HOSPITAL INFECTIONS

A DEADLY EPIDEMIC

Hospital Infections are a deadly problem that kill more people each year in the U.S. than AIDS, breast cancer, and auto accidents combined. One in 200 patients who spends a night or more in a hospital will die from medical error. One in 16 will pick up an infection.

Deaths from preventable hospital infections each year exceed 100,000.

These infections are almost all preventable. An increasing number of hospitals in the U.S. are proving it, reducing some of the deadliest types of infections by 90%. We have the knowledge to prevent this problem. What has been lacking is the will.

Big hospitals are breeding grounds for drug-resistant staph, MRSA, pseudomonas and C. diff bacteria. Many thousands of people die as a result.

You can't visit an industrial hog barn or a semiconductor plant without donning a bunny suit. Why do hospitals let doctors, orderlies and visitors slosh bacteria around with every footstep? Why don't patients rate as much hygiene as a pig or a videogame chip?
